Artan dünya nüfusu, doğal kaynaklardaki kirlenme ve azalma, iklim değişikliği, küresel ısınma vb. birçok ilişkili konu sürdürülebilirlik kavramının önemini giderek artırmaktadır. Bu bakımdan insan ihtiyaçlarının karşılanmasında üretim ve tüketimin sürdürülebilir kılınması gerekmektedir. Bu kapsamda bu çalışmanın amacı Mardin Organize Sanayi Bölgesi (OSB)'deki Küçük ve Orta Büyüklükteki İşletmelerin (KOBİ) sürdürülebilir üretim düzeylerinin belirlenmesidir. Bunun için öncelikle Mardin OSB'de faaliyet gösteren 156 aktif firmanın doksan dördüne soru formu uygulanmıştır. Soru formlarından elde edilen veriler SPSS paket programında değerlendirilmiş ve bulgular elde edilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgulara göre, Mardin OSB'deki KOBİ'lerin, ürün tasarımı, üretim süreci, atık yönetimi, enerji, tedarik, tersine lojistik, ekonomik, sosyal ve çevresel sorumluluk alanlarında sürdürülebilir üretim uygulamalarını genel olarak yerine getirdikleri belirlenmiştir. Ancak bu alanlardaki bazı uygulamaların yeterli olmadığı görülmüştür. İşletmeleri sürdürülebilir üretim uygulamalarına yönlendiren nedenler işletme maliyetlerinin azaltılması, yasal zorunluluklar, doğal kaynaklardaki tükenme ile firma imajına olumlu katkı olarak belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca, işletmelerin sürdürülebilir üretim düzeyleri bulundukları sektörlere göre ürün tasarımı, atık yönetimi ve sosyal sorumluluk alanlarında farklılık gösterdiği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

WOS: 000321347000030 ; PubMed ID: 23810020 ; Turkey has successfully introduced health system changes and provided its citizens with the right to health to achieve universal health coverage, which helped to address inequities in financing, health service access, and health outcomes. We trace the trajectory of health system reforms in Turkey, with a particular emphasis on 2003-13, which coincides with the Health Transformation Program (HTP). The HTP rapidly expanded health insurance coverage and access to health-care services for all citizens, especially the poorest population groups, to achieve universal health coverage. We analyse the contextual drivers that shaped the transformations in the health system, explore the design and implementation of the HTP, identify the factors that enabled its success, and investigate its effects. Our findings suggest that the HTP was instrumental in achieving universal health coverage to enhance equity substantially, and led to quantifiable and beneficial effects on all health system goals, with an improved level and distribution of health, greater fairness in financing with better financial protection, and notably increased user satisfaction. After the HTP, five health insurance schemes were consolidated to create a unified General Health Insurance scheme with harmonised and expanded benefits. Insurance coverage for the poorest population groups in Turkey increased from 2.4 million people in 2003, to 10.2 million in 2011. Health service access increased across the country-in particular, access and use of key maternal and child health services improved to help to greatly reduce the maternal mortality ratio, and under-5, infant, and neonatal mortality, especially in socioeconomically disadvantaged groups. Several factors helped to achieve universal health coverage and improve outcomes. These factors include economic growth, political stability, a comprehensive transformation strategy led by a transformation team, rapid policy translation, flexible implementation with continuous learning, and simultaneous improvements in the health system, on both the demand side (increased health insurance coverage, expanded benefits, and reduced cost-sharing) and the supply side (expansion of infrastructure, health human resources, and health services). ; World Bank ; RiA has acted as an adviser and a consultant to the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Turkey, including in the Health Transformation Program, and has undertaken consulting assignments in Turkey for the Ministry of Health of Turkey, WHO, and the World Bank.
